Chapter 15: Bring it on

Xin was unable to understand why he was asking him about his graduation university and asked out the same for clarification, "Ah. Mr~~"

"I am Kansaki Ryuu. Kansaki my family name and Ryuu given name."

"Oh, Mr. Ryuu, may I know why you are asking about my university background?"

"Why not? I mean talented individuals like us who graduated from international universities are the only eligible people to enter this main server room, having this supercomputer here."

Nen and Yamamoto frowned and greeted teeth on his comment. They were about to say something, but before they did Xin intervened and replied, "Mr. Ryuu, for your kind information I am not a university graduate. I am a high school student last year."

Ryuu "…"

After hearing his reply, he didn't even look at him and turned towards Nen.

"How could you let an ordinary high schooler enter this room and see the details of that project? Aren't you violating the disclosure agreement?!" he asked in a hoarse and rude voice.

All this time Natasha was keeping her quiet as she knew if her brother had permitted Xin to enter the room then there must be some reason behind it.

Not only Natasha, but even the bodyguard and Yamamoto were aware of it. Ryuu was the only one who was acting rudely and was showing superiority complexion.

Since Nen was more of a work type rather than talk, he turned around and swiped the screen of his computer.

"Mr.Ryuu, can you solve these two problems in five minutes?"

Xin also turned around and found it was the same question that professor Han had given him to solve.

Ryuu took a look at the question and turned towards Nen saying, "Mr. Nen, what nonsense are you spouting? Isn't it a part of your block of program?!"

"Yes, so what?!"

"You want me to solve this?"

"Yes!!"

"And what will I gain?! I mean, I am doing part of the work that you are supposed to do and get money."

"Oh, then let's make a bet. If you can solve both the questions in ten minutes, I will hand over the entire project to your company. And if you can't then you will hand over your part of the project to us."

Ryuu "…"

Now he was in a pinch. If he loses, then not only will he lose his face, he would also lose a million-dollar project. Since he was dipping his hand in it, he asked something that had been bugging him for a while.

"Mr. Nen, before I start, can you tell me the reason why the time limit is five minutes per question? Can't you make it longer like a week or a month? You know this right, this is a…" before he spouted something, Nen stopped him in the middle and said that the person standing before them completed both the questions with just a look.

Xin didn't even take five minutes, and Nen was giving Ryuu five minutes time per question, which was a great mercy on him.

Ryuu couldn't believe a high schooler can solve the questions with just a look and gaze at him with eyes of suspicion.

After pondering over it for some time, he opened his mouth and posed the thing that he had been thinking about for the past few minutes.

"Mr. Nen, how about this bet? I will try to solve these two units in ten minutes, and if I can't I will hand over the project to you, but if I was able to solve it, you will give me your part of the project. And I would like to make another bet if Mr. Xin here can solve any two blocks from my part of the project, then I will transfer one million USD to his account right now. And if he can't then he has to give me one million USD for wasting my time, and you have to give me Miss Natasha's hand for marriage."

Nen "Sure."

Xin "Bring it on."

Both of them knew that the trickster was proposing them a double bet with more advantages on his side, but both of them were confident enough in themselves so they agreed on it without thinking anything.

Natasha and the bodyguard were the only ones who had no idea where the convo was going, and how in the world she got dragged into it.

As for Yamamoto, he was enjoying the show from the sidelines. He had utter trust in Nen, cause he knew Nen was not one of those who would make a bet without knowing his limits.

So as per the bet, Nen showed the same two units of the program that Xin solved within a minute and asked Ryuu to solve them. Ryuu knew he can't solve the program within ten minutes, because solving one single unit takes two to three weeks. So to buy some more time for him, he made another proposal and posed it before them.

"Actually, I was thinking since Mr. Xin is still young, and at most he can be a junior programmer, so why don't we give him the first chance? And since I am a generous person, I will give him two weeks of time to solve any two debug, any two units, add the rest of the required lines and present it before us."

"Mhm…." Nen was considering his proposal. He knew in two weeks' time Ryuu could take some external help and solve the two units that had been assigned to him as a part of the bet. But at the same time, it was lucrative too. Cause in two weeks he can help Xin solve any two units from the program assigned to him by Ryuu.

He was contemplating about it when a voice echoed in his ears, "Not needed, I can solve it, right now."

Hearing his answer, different people made different expressions in that room. Natasha and the bodyguard were completely dumbfounded. Yamamoto doubted his ears, and he was somewhat in the same category as flabbergasted. Ryuu's heart was already in his mouth. And for Nen, he was already showing a war victor smile on his face.

"Show me the blocks," Xin asked in a cold voice.
